Hello. First, thank you to Moira1, ShirlO and Tanya for their kind words to me already. I introduced myself earlier without realising there's a weekly forum to do so. So I will do two introductions for the price of one!
My name is Cynthia. I am 46, very married, child-free (with a cat). I was just diagnosed last week with invasive ductal carcinoma and am due for surgery on Wednesday coming (1st September). I will have a lumpectomy + sentinel node biopsy. The closer my surgery comes the more sad I feel at the impending loss of the shape and size of my breast. I would like to hear from anyone else who's had a lumpectomy and hear about your response to it and how your breast turned out afterwards. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks. Cynthia
